2.2 Power Connection
Congratulations! You are now ready to power up the BCI 1200E and set
up your network connection. In order to make sure that you have a
proper installation, please observe the following:
1. Your AC jack has power.
2. Your electrical system has proper grounding (this ensures that
your power supply does not suffer from voltage variations).
3. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly
recommended. A UPS system provides voltage regularity as
well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus protecting your
1200E from sensitive voltage conditions.
The 1200E derives power from an external 12 VDC @ 1 Amp power
supply. This power supply comes standard for the 1200E unless
otherwise specified.
To provide power to the 1200E, simply connect the power cord, already
provided with the units, and connect it to the wall jack. (You will find one
power cord per unit). Once the power supply has been connected to the
wall jack, connect the other end to the unit and turn the switch on (I).
If you have any problems or concerns, regarding the installation, make
sure that you have taken the proper steps to ensure a proper power
connection. Otherwise, feel free to contact us for any questions you
may have.
3.0 OPERATION
After the installation procedure is completed, the units are ready for
operation. To operate the BCI 1200E units, simply apply power as
indicated in the previous step. Note that the front panel link status
indicator, shown in Table 2 will be activated.
